Can Breast Reduction Surgery in DC Help My Back Pain?

There are many reasons you may wish your breasts were smaller.

It might be because you can’t find a great fitting bra or you don’t like the way your clothes fit, but the biggest reason might be your back pain from carrying around the extra weight of large breasts.

If you’re ready to take the weight off your back and shoulders with plastic surgery, take a look at this quick guide to breast reduction surgery in DC.

Are My Breasts Really the Cause of My Back Pain?

Your breasts can absolutely be the cause of your chronic back pain, because they pull and stretch the ligaments that give your chest shape. Large breasts can cause way more than back pain, too. You could find yourself suffering from neck pain and spasms, headaches, issues with your posture, and chronically sore shoulders from bra straps.

Tell Me How Breast Reduction Surgery in DC Can Actually Help My Back Pain

Breast reduction surgery is a very safe and effective way to relieve your neck, shoulder, and back pain. It’s important that you find a surgeon in breast reduction surgery, so that you only have the amount of breast tissue removed that you need. This is based on your body shape and height, among other criteria. 

Am I a Good Candidate for Breast Reduction Surgery?

It’s recommended that you wait until your breasts have fully developed until you receive surgery. However, if you’re under the age of 18 and your breasts are seriously interrupting your daily activities, you may want breast reduction surgery, but you may need a second procedure later in life.
